Chapter 7: Why is this so Hard?!
Hibari had his legs curled up and glared up at Lori. He was very beat up and said, "Why are you here herbivore?"
"What the heck! That's all you have to say after I rescued you, you ungrateful jerk," Lori yelled as she limped in front of him.
Hibari finally took in her appearance and his eyes widened. He looked her up and down, seeing how torn up she really was. Her hair was wild making her look similar to Tsuna, she was sweaty with scratches here and there, clothes almost in shreds, and sweaty. What he really noticed was the cleavage coming out of her dress and said, "…Herbivore…are you female?"
Lori followed his eyes and blushed covering her chest, "…Yeah, but we can worry about that later. Don't you want revenge on the blue haired bastard?"
A deadly aura began to fill the room as Hibari began to stand and limp out of the room leaving Lori.
"Well at least wait for me you demon," she said chasing after him ducking as a tonfa came flying her way.
Hibari kept walking and said, "Don't insult me openly herbivore. You are still my slave whether you won that fight or not."
Lori pouted and grumbled, "I'm not your damn slave…"
She noticed how Hibari was struggling and sped up. She grabbed his arm and slung it over her shoulder and grabbed his side making him steady. He gave her an icy glare.
"Herbivore…"
Lori glared back and said, "Look Hibari just shut up and accept my help. We have better things to worry about than you and your stupid male pride."
Hibari looked at the girl and though, "…she seems…different now."
He stayed silent as they made their way back to where Tsuna and the others were fighting. They ran into Gokudera on the way.
Lori smiled, "Hey, octohead. You beat that bastard?"
"Without a doubt. Who do you think I am, Kazune," Gokudera said and turned his attention to Hibari.
He put his hand out and said, "Shamal wanted me to give this to you. It'll stop the cherry blossom thing."
Hibari stared at his hand and nodded as a trident mosquito bit him on the neck.
"What cherry blossom thing," Lori thought with a frown then she remembered, "Oh yeah, he had that sakuraitis or something because they want to watch the cherry blossom trees that one episode. That's how Mukuro beat him… Wait, why didn't I see it? Oh yeah, training…"
Gokudera yelled, "Let's hurry back to the Tenth."
They began to speed up as they reached the room. Tsuna turned around smiled, "Kazune, Gokudera, and…H-hibari."
Mukuro smirked as he looked at us, "Looks like they put a number on you, and the birdly has come back to play."
Lori scanned the room and saw Fuuta on the ground unconscious with a peaceful expression and Bianchi right next to him. Tsuna looked a little beat up and Reborn sitting on the sidelines.
Hibari smirked and shoved Lori, "I'll bite you too death!"
"This again? You know it won't work," Mukuro's eye changed and cherry blossoms began to fill the room.
Hibari ran at top speed to Mukuro and began to fight Mukuro who was taken by surprise. Lori limped over to Reborn and asked, "Why are you just sitting here Reborn?"
"I'm waiting," he replied cryptically looking up to Leon who was on the ceiling.
Lori followed he eyes and said, "How long has Leon been like that, and why am I just noticing it?"
Lori looked back over to Hibari and Mukuro as he heard a body hit the ground. Mukuro was laid out on the ground motionless. Hibari began to walk back toward the group and collapsed, but before he hit the ground Lori caught him. She gave a small as she felt his breathing.
"This guy is just not human," she laughed mentally and placed him gently on the ground.
She glared into space as she heard a laugh, "Kufufu, you don't smile at me like that."
They all turned around as Mukuro stood up and glared at the group. Lori gave a bitter smile, "Well maybe if you weren't a pervert I would jack ass."
"Hmm, so that weak bird is competition for my princess. I'll remember that," he said as he grabbed a gun from out his jacket.
Lori took a low stance and said, "For the last time I'm not your damn princess, and I'm not for grabs. No one is going to cuff me yet."
"Cuff," Gokudera and Tsuna asked confused.
"Get with me, marry me, along those lines," Lori explained laughing, "I shall be single for however long I please mwahahaha!"
Gokudera punched her in the head as Reborn kicked her in the stomach yelling, "Shut up you idiot."
"OW!"
Everyone expect for Lori, who was currently rolling around in pain, looked back at Mukuro who pointed the gun at his temple. He pulled the trigger and fell limply to the ground. Tsuna and Gokudera's eyes widened as he did so. Lori stared at the body and walked over to him. She nudged him with her foot.
"Yep he's dead alright," she said, but she knew it wasn't over just yet.
Tsuna yelled, "Kazune, I don't think you should do that."
She waved him off, "It's fine the bastard deserves it."
She walked back over to the group and patted Tsuna on the back and whispered, "Lil' Bro this isn't over quiet yet."
He looked at her and asked, "What do you mean?"
Gokudera walked over to his sister who began to open her eyes. But Tsuna and Lori could feel something creepy and menacing coming from her.
She smiled, "Hayato, help your big sister won't you."
Gokudera shrugged as he began to bend over to help her. She pulled out Mukuro's trident and cut his arm.
"WHAT THE HELL SIS!"
She smiled, "I'm sorry my hand slipped."
Reborn walked over to Bianchi and said, "Get it together Bianchi." He jumped up and slapped her on the nose lightly.
She gave a creepy smile and stabbed the spot that Reborn was standing in. Luckily, he jumped out the way.
Gokudera grabbed her arm and said, "Sis, what the hell are you doing?"
Tsuna flinched and yelled, "Gokudera, get out the way!"
"That's not your sister," Lori yelled as she heard a small voice tell her danger was around the corner.
It was too late and Bianchi kicked Gokudera in the chest knocking him out. She laughed Mukuro's trademark laugh and looked at Lori, Tsuna, and Reborn.
The hair covering her right eye moved revealing a red eye with the character for six in it, "You really thought it was over foolish Vongola kufufu."
Tsuna asked, "But how? You just shot yourself."
"The Estraneo family," Reborn began.
Tsuna and Lori looked at the infant as he began to explain, "A long time ago the family tried to create a bullet that was branded illegal in the mafia world. The Possession Bullet, which allows you to take over the body of an enemy and kill off their comrades. How did you obtain such a thing?"
"Kufufu those fool… it was easy to get it from them," he laughed. He walked over to the unconscious Hibari and said, "I can take control of others by cutting them with my trident."
Bianchi's body feel as he cut the boy, and Hibari's right eye turned red, "Kufufu, Hibari is a scary monster. Even though he's still hurt he still manages resist me even now."
Hibari's body went limp again and Mukuro took control of Bianchi's body again.
Lori gave him a disgusted look, "That's just sick…"
Tsuna glared at Mukuro and thought, "That's just cruel…"
Gokudera began to stand and Tsuna yelled, "Gokudera are you alright?"
He lifted his face to reveal a red right eye as well. Tsuna and Lori gasped.
"Dammit, first Bianchi and now Gokudera. Who's next," Lori asked frustrated.
As soon as she said that Ken and Chikusa came in in the same condition. Lori face palmed and sighed, "I just had to ask didn't I?"
All the possessed mafia members laughed unison and said, "How will you two get out of this hm?"
Tsuna looked at Reborn, "Reborn, what do we do?!"
"You have to do this on your own you too," Reborn said simply, "I can only watch for the time being."
Lori sighed she really didn't want to. She was tired, hurt, and sore. However, she had to do what she had to do. Tsuna seemed a little uncertain. Lori thought, "Tsuna just think about protecting everyone. That's your true dying will lil' bro."
She stood with her back facing Tsuna's as she said, "Listen, Tsuna. I know you don't want to do this but we have to do this to stop Mukuro. We can do this if we work together, okay?"
"…Yeah," Tsuna said.
Lori smirked, "Okay. I'll take Ken and Chikusa, and you handle Octohead and Bianchi."
They began to fight their two people. Lori kicked Ken and Chikusa, but they just kept coming back like zombies. She was running out of energy and fast. She looked over to Tsuna who was getting the snot beat out of him by Bianchi and Gokudera. She frowned and couldn't take Mukuro's torture anymore.
"Why is this so hard?!," she thought as she dodged an attack.
Ken wrapped his arms around she waist and pulled her closer as he said, "What's wrong Lori? Getting tired?"
She pushed him and said, "Shut it and don't touch me."
Chikusa crossed his arms around his heart, "You wound me princess."
She kicked him. She looked at the broken boys on the ground. They were both heavily injured from their previous fights, both bleeding, and trembling from pain. The same went for Bianchi and Gokudera.
Tsuna asked, "Aren't you feeling their pain Mukuro? Why are you doing this to them?"
"Kufufu, you really are foolish Tsunayoshi Sawada. I could care less about their pain," his smile with a dark, twisted smile, "They are nothing more than tools for my enjoyment."
Both Lori's and Tsuna's eyes widened as anger began to swell up inside them both. They looked at each other and glared at the blue haired menace.
Lori yelled, "And what about Ken and Chikusa? Do you even car about them?"
"Not at all."
Tsuna yelled, "How could you? They're your friends aren't they?"
Mukuro gave a blank look, "I have no friends."
Lori balled up her fist and yelled, "Mukuro this is unforgiveable. I won't let you hurt my friends any longer. I'm going to protect them with all my might and get vengeance for their pain!"
Leon began to glow.
Tsuna looked at Mukuro with a new found determination. He was angry and couldn't forgive Mukuro either. He wanted to defeat him, and proof that he wasn't just Stupid Tsuna, but Tsunayoshi Sawada Vongola's Tenth Heir.
Leon began to glow brighter.
"Mukuro Rokudo, I swear I will protect my friends and defeat you. You won't take over the mafia world," Tsuna yelled.
Leon's cocoon blew and a pair of gloves with the number 27, two plain paper fans, and two bullets appeared before Tsuna, Lori, and Reborn.
Reborn picked up Leon who transformed back into a gun and smirked, "Finally you two understand what it means to be a part of the Vongola."
Lori walked over and picked up the paper fans with a confused looked, "Wouldn't my regular fans be better than these? I mean at least they're lethal."
"No those are way stronger," Reborn smirked with a glint in his eyes.
"Why do I only have wool gloves," Tsuna asked franticly.
Reborn kicked him, "Shut up and put them on Tsuna."
"What are these bullets for," Lori asked handing them to Reborn.
He took them and said, "Dying Will Bullets, but they seem different from the usual ones I use on Tsuna. I wonder why?"
Mukuro stopped them having Ken attack Lori and Gokudera kick Tsuna, "Too bad you won't live long enough to find out Arcobaleno."
He sent Bianchi after Reborn who jumped in the air avoiding her attack. He had Gokudera throw bombs at both Tsuna and Lori, who couldn't avoid them in time and got hit, "And neither will they."
Reborn landed on the ground with his head down gun in hand. Mukuro smirked as he looked at the two bodies in the crater.
"I need Tsunayoshi's body, but injury will heal regardless. As for Lori I would never completely kill the girl I'm interested in. She will be fine," he smirked then looked at Reborn, "Looks like you won't have students anymore Arcobaleno."
Reborn smirked, "I don't think so Mukuro Rokudo. I'm the strongest hitman in the world. I can shoot a bullet with perfect accuracy in 0.8 seconds. Look at them yourself."
Mukuro looked back at the two. Something seemed different about the two.
Lori began to see images of her family and friends run though her mind. She saw her mother and sister talking about how much they missed her.
"I miss you guys two," she thought.
Then an image of her father appeared as he was working in his office overseas. He looked at the family picture of them and said, "I hope my little Lori is doing fine. She is a strong willed and smart girl, even though her temper can get the best of her from time to time. Where ever she is I know she is doing something that will change someone for the best. Something that will make me proud…"
He began to chuckle, "And hopefully she isn't getting a crazy boyfriend because then I'll have to traumatized someone."
Lori sweat dropped, "Wow Dad just wow, but…I know I'll make you proud."
Suddenly, the silhouette of a woman appeared. The woman smirked and said, "Go and kicked to douchebags ass!"
Lori recognized the voice and smirked. She knew she could trust this woman who ever she was, "I will whoever you are!"
When she opened her eyes it was the same icy blue from the fight with Ken. An icy flame appeared on her forehead. She stood up and sent the flames into the pan fans. They changed into steel fan and looked similar to her original ones expect a roman numeral X was hanging from the bottom in a large charm. The flames stayed on the tips of the blades in the fan. Tsuna's appeared changed as well he eyes were now an orange color. His gloves changed as well with an X on them too. They looked awesome.
Mukuro frowned, "This can't be…"
Lori and Tsuna had extremely calm expressions as they said in perfect unison, "Mukuro Rokudo we're going to defeat you."
